Mini Cookies. Aren’t they just the best? Two bites and you’ve scarfed one down. I make mini-cookies every now and again, mainly because I have this huge cookie jar and I make a contest out of it on my Facebook page to see who can guess how many there are. Last year I did the standard Chocolate Chip Cookie with mini-chips, this year, it’s the Chocolate White Chocolate Chip version. If you cant to pay along, head on over to the FB page and enter!

Yesterday it was freezing here in greater Boston. I mean *cold cold cold*. I couldn’t even get my apartment to warm up too much, until I decided to bake something. I didn’t have a lot of “spare” ingredients in the pantry either. I did have a bag of these chocolate melting wafers, that I decided to use as giant chocolate chips. Turns out, pretty yummy cookies and a warm flat. Win win, if you ask me.
What do you get when you combine a brownie and a cookie? Well, you get this cool love-child of a thing called a Brookie. If you make them as bars (vs in cookie shape), you get Brookie Bars. And what happens if you happen to throw in a bag of cinnamon chips? Well, you get these absolutely delicious Cinnamon Chip Brookie Bars! As you can see, the “January Health Kick” didn’t last very long. LOL
Happy Obligatory Cake Day! Yes, here we are again at that one day out of the year that I really feel that I should bake a cake. This year, we have a Salted Caramel Chocolate Torte. Though I haven’t tried it all put together (clearly it hasn’t been cut yet), all the components separately were delicious, though not surprisingly, a little on the sweet side. And if I were to spend my days critiquing myself, I would say that I am still not great at frosting / decorating, but meh, it’s ok.
